~Date: ~October 07~

As soon as the second quarter began, the Mavericks showed their fierce side. Just two minutes ago, they scored several points with Nowitzki's central shot and Kidd's precise assist. In the second minute, the score between the two sides had become 18:29. The Hornets were already 11 points behind and the score reached double digits.

Seeing this situation, Scott quickly sent his elite favorites, and the Hornets immediately re-played the main lineup of Paul, Zhong Yu, Peja, West and Chandler.

Seeing the Hornets replaced the main lineup, the Mavericks were not willing to be outdone. So, the second quarter only started for two minutes, but the two teams were about to fall into a cruel positional battle. They would show off their bayonets in the interweaving of offense and defense, and engage in a fierce hand-to-hand battle.

This is the first ball. Paul took the ball through half the game. He wanted to break through and quickly win one for the Hornets, but the opponent almost killed him near the free throw line, making him unable to make any progress and could only withdraw helplessly.

When Zhong Yu saw this situation, he knew that the team should need him very much at this time.

Starkhouse has been following Zhong Yu and not giving him any chance. Zhong Yu also interspersed to the bottom line, and then suddenly ran back and entered the second area. In this area, Zhong Yu's breakthrough ability increased, and his own speed increased instantly. He retreated and took a step directly with Starkhouse.

With such a small step, if Zhong Yu was a little late, he would not have time to take a calm shot and score. But this time was very short, but Paul's pass was so magical and evil. The moment Zhong Yu had just arrived at the right position, Paul's pass had already flew over.

At the moment, Zhong Yu naturally had nothing to be polite and jumped directly.

"Look!" The basketball flew into the basket. Suddenly, in the audience next to the basketball court, contempt middle fingers rose everywhere, booing and booing.

However, it is obvious that their booing was just to cover up the panic in their hearts. Their panic came from Zhong Yu, who were worried that Zhong Yu would destroy the last trace of the Mavericks' dignity and the last fig leaf of the Mavericks.

The Mavericks continued to attack, and Nowitzki made another jump shot. Nowitzki's performance in the playoffs was like a gold finger, and he scored more than 30 points in each of the three consecutive playoffs. It can be seen that this guy is ready to fight desperately.

He tried his best to maintain the dignity of the Mavericks.

Basketball returned to Paul's hands again, and this time Paul was even more straightforward. He passed the basketball to Zhong Yu directly after halftime. In his impression, Zhong Yu still had some offensive ability to hold the ball.

When Zhong Yu received the basketball, everyone thought he would be lightning. Who knew that this guy directly faced Starkhouse with his side and pushed him out of the three-point line bit by bit. It’s not that Zhong Yu had no confidence, his ball control was still a bit standard. He did this mainly because he was worried about making mistakes.

Starkhouse followed Zhong Yu to the three-point line depressedly. After all, Zhong Yu was very good at protecting the ball and he couldn't steal it, so there was no need for him to push Zhong Yu with all his strength. Because if he did that, he knew that this kid's breakthrough ability was also good, and he might just pass by himself and never find him back.

Therefore, Starkhouse could only be pushed outside the three-point line by Zhong Yu. At this time, Zhong Yu suddenly relaxed and was pushing Starkhouse's shoulder and pulled the basketball back with a step back.

Starkhouse felt Zhong Yu's force suddenly retracted, and almost staggered. He quickly withdrew his body and looked at Zhong Yu. He could not give Zhong Yu any chance.

However, he was shocked when he looked at Zhong Yu with his own eyes...

Because, when he saw Zhong Yu, Zhong Yu was already in mid-air. It turned out that the moment Zhong Yu quickly withdrew from his side, he had already jumped and shot.

Zhong Yu's jump shot was still as sharp and handsome as ever. The basketball left his hands and penetrated straight into the net.

Another three-pointer!

The score is 2331, and the Hornets still have 8 points left.

The gap between these eight points is not big, especially for the Hornets, which have several three-pointers.

The next ball, the Mavericks did not make a breakthrough. Zhong Yu grabbed a rebound and quickly passed it to Paul. Paul received the pass and immediately passed the half. After a series of breakthroughs, he quickly split the basketball. Zhong Yu, who was on the outside, received the pass again and was able to shoot three-pointers!

However, at this time, Starkhouse had already forced him up, and Zhong Yu made a fake jump shot. At the moment when Starkhouse was judging, Zhong Yu's pass had also started and came to the hands of Peja who was preparing on the other side. There was no defender in front of Peja, which was also the reason why Zhong Yu passed the ball to him. Zhong Yu's eyes were very poisonous, and he saw Peja's open position at a glance.

Upon receiving the pass, Peja saw that there were basically no obstacles in front of him, so he took action without any hesitation.

There was a three-pointer! Peja also got a three-pointer, and Zhong Yu's assists also increased by one, with the score of 26:31. The Hornets were only five points behind their opponents!

The Mavericks were a little anxious and began to struggle, but sometimes, touch is not very related to anger and hard work. Although the Mavericks players tried their best, it was a pity that they still failed to hit the ball.

The basketball returned to the Hornets, Paul took the ball through the half, and then passed the basketball to Zhong Yu. Zhong Yu received the pass outside the three-point line. After dribbling under his crotch, he immediately broke through to Starkhouse's left hand.

Starkhouse felt Zhong Yu's breakthrough power and found that it was not as threatening as before. At that moment, he was determined to stick to his bottom line, but Zhong Yu had already taken a step forward.

Starkhouse still used the previous method to defend Zhong Yu, but at this time Zhong Yu had obviously received the bonus in the first area and instantly tore away from him.

The wind whistled in my ears, and the cheers on both sides and the shouts of all the players became blurred lines in my mind.

Zhong Yu saw Nowitzki standing inside. He put away the basketball, then took a step while making a fake shooting move, and then made a layup directly.

"Bang!" Suddenly a voice came, and Zhong Yu was beaten by Howard in the inside...
